Chapter One Hundred and Four
Zheng Qi lay on the ground, looking at the sun that had just risen in the sky, and watched like this, slowly, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
The footsteps of the Russian soldier stepped over him, the boots constantly stepping over his body, causing him to feel a pang of pain. Those Russian soldiers didn't care about him, cleaning the battlefield was done by the troops behind, and their task was to bite this bandit, and they must not let this bandit escape safely.
There was no smile on Lopatkin's face, if it weren't for the disparity in strength between the two sides in the war, then the casualties of the attacking side would definitely be much greater than the defending side, so the ancients only remembered the sentence of attacking the city.
The brief battle on the hill also clearly illustrated this, as the heavy Russian artillery fire did not give them the slightest advantage, and in the close contact between the two sides, another eighty-one Russian soldiers were killed.
From the morning to now, the number of Russian soldiers killed has reached 500, and the result is actually less than 400 bandits! Lopatkin looked at the fleeing figures of the bandits at the bottom of the mountain, he exhaled deeply, and then said three words: "Catch up!" ”
British journalist Mark looked at the situation on the battlefield, and at this time he did not laugh at the Russian troops, but with a very solemn expression, he raised his camera to take some photos he needed.
"General! There's another live one here! ”
A loud roar from a Russian soldier caught everyone's attention, living bandits! This is the first living bandit they have encountered until now!
Without waiting for Lopatkin to say anything, those reporters quickly ran in front of Zheng Qi!
Elena was the first to raise her camera, press the shutter, and take a picture of the Chinese bandit covered in blood. In the shot, Zheng Qi was half-sitting on the ground, holding a rifle in his hand, but he did not raise it. In front of Zheng Qi was a group of armed Russian soldiers, all of whom were aimed at the Chinese bandit.
Elena took a picture and said to the Russians around her: "You don't have to do this! He's been injured and he deserves to be treated and treated humanely now! ”
The Russian soldiers also ignored her, and when Elena saw that yelling a few times had no effect, she didn't say anything to these people anymore, and slowly walked over to Zheng Qi, saying in Chinese: "Okay! The war is over for you, is it okay to put down the gun? I'm a journalist, and I can guarantee that I can get you treated like a prisoner of war, and now put the gun down, and I ask you a few words, okay? ”
Zheng Qi smiled, watching this woman slowly walk into him, he said softly: "Go away." ”
Elena was stunned for a moment: "What did you say?" ”
Mark's eyes were very sharp, he saw bursts of white smoke suddenly coming out of Zheng Qi's back, and he didn't have time to say anything, so he suddenly pounced and threw Yelena to the back: "Get out of the way!" Get out of the way! ”
"Bang!"
The huge explosion set off a wave of wind, and three of the dozen or so Russian soldiers surrounding Zheng Qi were killed on the spot, and the rest were also lying in a pool of blood wailing.
This scene really shocked everyone, and when Mark got up from the ground, he couldn't help but curse: "Hell! ”
Then he hurriedly looked at Elena who fell beside him: "Yelena, are you okay?" ”
Yelena was now alone in shock, and after being helped up by Mark, she cried in fear and buried her head in Mark's shoulder: "Weishenme will be like this? I just wanted to ask him two words, he weishenme would do this? ”
Mark patted her on the shoulder: "Okay, this has nothing to do with you, he didn't intend to be caught alive by the Russians at all." ”
Yelena was still crying, and Mark was already calm at this time, after all, he was a man, and he was a man who had been on the battlefield as a soldier. He helped Elena aside to rest: "Listen, you are so good to rest now, his death really has nothing to do with you, can you tell me what you want to ask him?" ”…,
Yelena said: "I just wanted to ask him, weishenme is going to be a bandit? Still fighting ghosts with that heinous beast Yang? ”
Mark smiled: "I think I'm just like you now, and I'm becoming more and more interested in Yang fighting ghosts." ”
Yang Xiaolin ran all the way, the bandits' physical strength dropped very much, and they couldn't support it after running all night and continuous battles, and now they were running forward completely with Zuihou's breath, and some bandits fell to the ground while running, and they couldn't get up again.
After running for nearly an hour, they finally reached the entrance of the valley, and after Yang Xiaolin plunged into it, Akberil behind was stunned and hurriedly stopped the Russian soldiers in front from continuing the pursuit!
Because the terrain of this valley is like Nyerere said, don't go in and look, you can see the danger from the outside. The canyon was long, steep and wooded on both sides, and if there were bandits guarding the ridges on either side, the troops entering the valley would be dealt a fatal blow.
General Akberlir did not hesitate to exterminate Yang Xiaolin, otherwise he would not have pursued it until now. But he is a qualified general, he knows that sometimes you don't achieve your goal at all costs on the battlefield, judging from the few small-scale contacts just now, this group of bandits can no longer be said to be bandits, and he must be careful.
Lopatkin, who was behind, saw that the troops had stopped, and did not let the herald come to convey the order, and ran to the side of Akberil: "Akberil, what's the matter?" weishenme is not leaving? ”
Akberlil's hand pointed forward: "Your Excellency, the terrain here is very unfavorable to us, and I am afraid that we will be ambushed by our opponents and our troops will be harmed again. ”
Lopatkin looked at it, he didn't have any knowledge of war, and his brows immediately tightened: "Are we just staying outside?" Ackberil, how about we take a detour? ”
Akberil shook his head: "No, that will let these bandits run away!" Troops must be sent in immediately, let those Qing Dynasty troops enter! ”
Lopatkin smiled: "Not bad, this is a great idea!" ”
Akberlil's idea was to let the Qing Dynasty's troops go in as cannon fodder, and if there were bandits in ambush, once the ambushed bandits revealed their location, the Russians' artillery could immediately bombard them! Just blast them out of the ambush, and then there will be no problem.
The position of the Qing Dynasty's troops in this joint encirclement and suppression was originally cannon fodder, and Zengqi was also very conscious, and immediately began to mobilize troops after hearing the instructions of Lord Yang, and Zhao Yansun was very unlucky to be selected by Zengqi.
He led more than 3,000 Qing troops under his command, holding the latest German-made rifles, and walked into the valley tremblingly.
Akberil was not idle, the Qing army could lead the ambushed bandits to the leakage position, and the Russian army was needed to really solve the battle. First of all, the Qing army can't do it, it really can't. There is also the fact that even if the Qing army can, they are not willing to give the credit for capturing Yang Xiaolin to the Qing army.
After the Qing army entered the valley, the Russian army of more than 4,000 men was divided into three groups, one group of men and horses held on a piece of high ground at the exit of the mountain pass, the other group of men and horses were ready to enter the valley at any time, and 2,000 men and Commander Lopatkin pressed on the side of Zuihou.
(Three more!) I don't dare to ask for a ticket, I'm a little socialized in the evening, and I'm trying to come back early and do two more chapters)
